The 12th Seoul Mediacity Biennale THIS TOO, IS A MAP

2023.09.21 – 2023.11.19

Entitled THIS TOO, IS A MAP, the 12th Seoul Mediacity Biennale (SMB12) opened to the public at Seoul Museum of Art, Seoul Museum of History, SeMA Bunker, space mm, Sogon Space, and Seoullo Media Canvas from 21 September to 19 November 2023. Developed to imagine the global aesthetics of the non-territorial, THIS TOO, IS A MAP focuses on alternative concepts of mediating and relating that live outside of borders and looks to the necessity of abstractions and hidden and deliberately obscured languages to communicate shared existence. The project refers to the global relations that take place within Seoul and its industrial surroundings, and the positions and references of those willingly and unwillingly displaced, often multiple times over, whether within or outside of the city and state. The Biennale looks at systems imposed or created outside of national borders, including transnational solidarities, “underground” commitments, the coded mapping of data and infrastructure, as well as those of artistic and political communication.
